img_convert is now deprecated in upstream ffmpeg, we need to be using the
swscale library now (shipped with ffmpeg).

I would much prefer having a separate plugin (as for libpostproc) for this
since it would allow us just to link against libswscale (and maybe libavutil).

This needs to be fixed before the next release since it's been disabled in
current build.
